William Hill have odds up early as usual. Not all games priced yet but Fingal@3.2 looks good to me.

1.73 on Shams to beat us is a gimme. Our defence is brutal beyond belief, and we're likely to have a right back and utility player in central defence. Haven't gone against us so far this season, but when we're so bad...
Odds with Boyle, btw
Yep, definitely. Might even go back to the handicaps for that one.
More odds up now.

Drogs, Bohs and Waterford at evens are all great value.
Bohs' recent record at home to Derry is dire as I recall, I reckon that's an under if anything.
Our record in general of late isnt great to say the least against Derry except for the cup that is ;) We have never beaten Derry at home since Kenny took over Derry
Bohs will surely be resting players also assuming they dont get hammered in the 1st leg v Salzburg??
When they're only 5 points clear at the top? Highly doubt it. They've decent cover in their squad anyway. Derry are playing midweek too.Quote:

Shamrock Rovers v Sligo Rovers
I just can't see us getting anything from this game. We don't get much from the 'other' Rovers at the best of times, and we're dire at the moment. We have the same problem as last season, in that we're finding it hard to score, but compounded now by a colander-like, ever-changing defence. Even if one or both of our new strikers score, our defence is going to be under a stern test from the hottest strike force in the league. This price is only likely to come down so I'd advise lumping on quickly.
Backing Shamrock Rovers to win (Boyle Sports) @ 8/11 - 4pts
When do betfair usually have prices up?
The people decide that :) - the markets are usually up 5-10 days in advance!Quote:

Harps will be missing Houston... very light up front without him or Gethins so I'd be less optimistic than I was about our game. Still, though we've certainly been playing well.
Yep and we could be missing up to 9 first choice players due to injury and suspensionQuote:

Waterford at evens tonight away to Mon U, what yiz think? Seems a tad overpriced to me. Mon U got wallopped last week 4-0.
I'm all over it. Can't believe the price is still there as that was the best available originally.Quote:

Must stick a couple of quid on that one, cheers.
Dundalk@2.6 vs Galway- 1pt.
Galway missing a few key players and Dundalk doing very well at the moment.
My stupid bet of the week goes on:
Waterford, Harps, Shamrock Rovers wins Drogs and a Shels/Fingal draw.
€5 win me €149.24
Im also putting €5 on Derry to beat Bohs at 3/1.
Why not, sure €10 never killed me, yet :p
Chanced that one as well.Quote:

0.75 pts Double on Shels and Dundalk @ 6.04. 1 pt single on Shels @ 2.5 and 1 pt single on Dundalk @ 2.6.
0.25 pts single on D Crawley @ 11/1 to score anytime. He's a defender but he is also our peno taker so we will give him a go.
0.25 pts on the 0-0 in the Drogs v Bray game. This is will be a tight game with little or no goals and at the price it's worth it. Bray have only scored 4 goals away from home this season.
Not looking bad at all RR. I did OK tonight, had Dundalk plus a small bet on Bray so happy enough.
Happy fooking days :cool: - though I do have one regret. On the betfair forum I said if Bray reach the 5/1 mark I'd back them. They went to 6.2 about an hour before kick off but decided to pass it down. While drogs are in decent form, this was a relegation dog fight and the 1.72 on the home win was an absolute joke.Quote:

Finn Harps v Athlone Match
Finn Harps - A depleted Athlone side travel to an in-form Finn harps side tonight. Harps are in a rich vein of form of late, 11 points from 15 and also record an inspiring 2-1 win over Ipswich Town during the week. Athlone haven't won in Donegal since 1992. 1-0 home win.
Longford v Mervue Utd Match
Longford - Mervue have gone to ****e lately, conceding 19 goals in their last 4 games. Longford are no great shakes but should still come out on top with a convincing win. 3-1 home win.
Shamrock Rovers v Sligo Rovers Match
Shamrock Rovers - This game have been moved to Tolka Park due to the Real Madrid game and this have resulted in a price drift on the 'home' win. However, Rovers have played many games here as it became a sort of second home to the former homeless side. Rovers are bang in form while Sligo are well off the pace. Baker and Twigg could run a amok against a poor Sligo defence tonight. 2-0 Shamrock Rovers.
0.25pt treble on the above on Betfair @ 5.04 and a 1.5pt single on Rovers @ 1.82.
Cheers, going for a small stake on this.Quote:

Slightly apprehensive about this one now, with the venue change and the fact that we've signed a few players. However, our central defence is still crap so Shams should take the win.Quote:

How come you didn't put more on Rovers, RR? Would've thought you'd go in more heavily on a game like that.Quote:

All in all won me about €40.Quote:

Glad I steered clear of Mons v Waterford after all!
